    Hello,

    First of all, please forgive me but I do not speak English.
    I am conducting a class A amplifier
    The power this with a soft start and a temperature monitoring.

    The program works the way I want ... when the stamp is connected to the pc.

    Can you tell me if I did something wrong?

    Thank you in advance!

    PS: You can answer in English ...

    Does that mean that it doesn't work when disconnected from the PC?

    What are you working with, a USB BoE, a serial BoE, or...?

    Speculating -- it may be that you are missing a ground (common) that the Stamp picks up when connected to the PC.

    Perhaps you could sketch out your set-up on a sheet of paper, take a picture of that, and post it.

    The stamp is completely inactive when the PC is unplugged.

    I use a USB serial converter parallax

    Attached is the wiring diagram

    The resolution of that drawing leaves much to be desired. I can't tell if you are trying to run it from "9V" at V_in or if you are supplying 5V to V_dd.
    From Stamp 'physical' pin 4 (Vss) to pin 24 = ____V?
    From Stamp 'physical' pin 4 (Vss) to pin 21 = ____V?

    Is all of that on one circuit board or is it on a bunch of breadboards and so on?
    [I think you're losing a ground connection when you disconnect it from the PC.]

    If you can make all of that then you should be able to troubleshoot it.
    There's nothing to prevent the Stamp from running but absence of power (5V).

    Obviously make sure it works ... uh ....

    I do not understand ...

    Well I'll try that way.

    Anyway, thank you very much for your answers

    I cannot read any of the details in the schematic you provided.

    With regard to my post / #5:
    Is there 5V for the Stamp at the Stamp?
    Not measured from some presumed "ground", but right on its pins.

    Hello,

    sorry for the schema, I did not notice ...

    You put me doubt, whether I have a measure in the right place ... I re-measurement tonight!

    I can see clearly, now!

    The output of your 7805 (+5V), U4, is going to the Stamp's "V_in" pin#24. It (5V) should go to the Stamp's pin#21.

    5V isn't enough for V_in, that should be in the range of +8 to 12V.
